Haliotidae

'Haliotidae' is the scientific name for abalone. This little cluster of abalone shells was originally created for as a commission for an abalone fisherman. My slightly abstract interpretation of abalone pays homage to the white, pink, and green abalone species that are currently on the endangered species list - facing the threat of extinction due to overfishing and ocean acidification.
